Hatred of Running?

WOW your mom is psycho hahahah! Don’t even listen to her, just go run dude!!

My mom takes the old-fashioned “no exercise, but tons of veggies’ll make me lose weight!!!” strategy. My mom also would freak out about me running outside on the school track as well, and since I don’t have a car yet I’m stuck with her schedule of picking me up right when the end of the school year bell hits. I also guess I should have generalized it more- she freaks out about me going running/walking/skipping/rollerblading in my neighborhood or anywhere else PERIOD. I haven’t eaten junk food in a year or so, also- so I am trying (plus I tend to cook for myself- small amounts of red meat or fish/chicken and veggies).

well, you could talk to her about it, and I mean like VERY gentally. you could assign a route for you to take so if she gets worried and can’t reach you she could just drive the route and find u. I take my cell and have a certain like distance I could go because my neighborhood is surrounded by busy streets so they are like my bonderies, if I’m going a different way I gotta tel my mom or go with a friend, but I prefur to do it alone. my favorite time is like 6 am-if I’m even up. but when noone is outside and it’s like slightly misty it’s wonderful.

Tell her how your feeling about it and if she has a problem, who cares. You are old enough to take care of yourself. She isn’t going to be doing it all your life so she needs to start practicing to back off. Tell her you want to be healthy and lose weight and to leave you alone. Tell her to watch the news instead of asking you because your not a weather reporter. Be a little rude to her but not to much. Maybe she’ll understand since she doesn’t get that vibe that you are getting annoyed. Mothers should get a vibe from there own children… So yeah. Be rude but not to rude and make her understand.

How about you join the YMCA or something and run on thief track. Most have indoor tracks. They also have pools you can swim laps in.
